BROOKLYN STREET ART LOVES YOU MORE EVERY DAY
You could call it a mural, this new piece celebrating Saint Sophia’s Cathedral in Kiev. You may also simply refer to it as an outdoor painting of a majestic and Byzantine indoor view.

Spanish Street Artist/artist/muralist/painter Borondo completed this interpretation of the 11th century Ukrainian Baroque cathedral this month during the Mural Social Club festival in Kiev and named it “Portals”. Epic, haunting, grandly meta, the arches and openness may feel as if you are seeing an outside view and the bottom third reflective surface could place you in the seat of a Venetian gondola.
Borondo executed this mural with the support of Sky Art Foundation and Mural Social Club and shortly after this one, he was again on an enormous wall with Urban Nation Project M/9 in Berlin. Go Borondo!
